Title question mostly. I’ve played with XTTS-v2 and it worked pretty well, but I’m wondering if folks are using anything else special. I’d like to train my own voice finetune which is what I did with XTTS-v2, and then use it with home assistant’s voice feature. Welcome all opinions on it!
The docs don’t say it’s completely offline. Can you turn off your LAN connection and it still works? Have you tried this? Or just firewall off out bound access to Google services?
This comment:
doesn’t say it doesn’t call out to Google services; it says only that it doesn’t use translation services. I didn’t see anything else that implies it doesn’t send data to Google.
If it doesn’t require an API key in the config, it’s offline. My HA works totally offline unless I need to do updates, and it’s always worked for me.
You can also view the code, cuz open source.
👍 Thanks. I’m surprised, and still skeptical, but thanks.
I was curious and it uses gTTS.
It calls what’s probably the “speak” button on translate.google.com
